Website support system

A support system built into your website

Bugpot puts a Feedback button on your site. Mark up a screenshot of the page, send it, and follow the request until it is done.

What Bugpot is

Every website request in one place

Website requests tend to arrive as an email, a photo of a screen or a line in a meeting. Then somebody has to work out which page it was about, and on which phone.

Bugpot is a website support system that starts on the page itself. A request arrives with its screenshot and page address attached, joins one list, and keeps its whole conversation in one thread until the work is done.

Follow one request from start to finish

What happens after you press Feedback

  1. Show it on the page

    Press Feedback on your site, mark up a screenshot of the page and write a line. The page address and the browser details are recorded for you.

    How reporting works
  2. Always know where it stands

    Every request for a website sits in one list with a status: Open, In progress, Resolved or Closed. You can see who is looking after it and how urgent it is without asking.

    How tracking works
  3. Reply from your inbox

    Bugpot emails you when there is news on a request. Answer that email and your reply joins the thread, next to everything said before it.

    How messages work
  4. See the cost before anything is done

    When a change has a cost, the quote appears in the thread as a fixed amount or a time estimate. The people named as approvers accept or decline it there, and the answer is recorded.

    How approvals work
